[PATCH] mac80211 : Fix mode change hard_start_xmit function

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When monitor mode is changed to BSS or IBSS, data trasnfer can not happen
because proper transmit function is not assigend for BSS ,IBSS mode.
This patch fixes this problem assigning the ieee80211_subif_start_xmit
to device's hard_start_xmit function.
